Just great fun!
I played the whole game (untimed) straight thru and enjoyed it alot! It took me about 6 hours.
I wasn't very thrilled with the other matchmaker games but this one had drama, good graphics and actual stories that meshed through the whole game.
There is a big variety minigames, as well. Shooting targets, matching items, placing inlays, completing jigsaw puzzles as well as repairing alot of things - like her room, a car, a night club.....
I really just had fun with this game!

Love takes patience.
And that's what this game requires.
This is not a dark themed game like the most popular hidden object games out there.
Hidden Objects are across two to five locations a scene and you must move back and forth between them as objects move up the list.
The soundtrack is relaxing and is good for anyone who has the patience finding well hidden objects.
No voiceover, but you can enjoy the music meanwhile.

Blast from the past!
I just love these relaxing games. Has a little challenge to it. Hidden objects are not difficult to find. I don't care for puzzles and these were a little challenging to me. Music is soothing. Old school, but wonderful positive game! Some reading inbetween scenes. Will be a game that I will play again and again. A buy for me!

What a fun game. Loved it!
Wow, I was surprised low the low ratings on this game. I found it to be very fun. The puzzles were fun, different, and very unique. I absolutely loved this game and had a blast playing it. I'd love to see more like this... without the voodoo dolls and curses. Those were the only things I didn't like about it. Quite honestly, I'm sick of games that are all about curses, zombies, werewolves, evil spells, bones, dead bodies etc. I wish Big Fish would come out with more family oriented games. Like the Big City Adventure games, Gardenscapes, Mystery PI etc.

Different games for different people!!
Not everyone is going to like EVERY game! I appreciate that Big Fish comes up with all the different variety of games...it means they are thinking about all of us, not just ONE type of person! Thank You for such a pleasant different game. The graphics are nice and the story is fun. There is a lot of different things to do. Mini games and HO's and I loved the antique car, cleaning the park, redoing a room, finding dolls, sorting stuff, and a lot more. It was a very relaxing game to discover after a hard night of work. Thank you so much for this game. I am buying it, will also replay it now and then. Nice change from the Dark HOPA games even though lots of them are also fun. :) I do recommend this game for those that want to relax and try a change of games. Its fun to be open minded enough to enjoy all kinds of games!!!!

Liked it!
Seems either you liked it or didn't, no in betweens, I'm glad I decided to try it, as I usually don't try anything with only 2 stars, and seldom 3 stars, but when I read the reviews, I saw so many differences in opinions. The only thing missing might be the interactive story line, but to me, just the fun puzzles and magnifying glass part of the HO scenes took care of that for me. I really enjoyed it.

Great story line
The matchmaker comes to a town that has not had a wedding in 20 years. Of course she will fix everything. I have the other matchmaker game & I find this one as good if not better.Ho's scenes a bit cluttered but not to difficult if you take your time. The mini games are okay , you can skip if you don't want to do them. I enjoyed this game very much. I bought it as soon as demo was over. Great great game .

a good game of evasion without too many thoughts.
it's a nice relaxing game fun, I did the whole demo, we are used to plays a little more advanced, perhaps, but in my opinion deserves a good consideration, we also want this type of game with beautiful colors a set of puzzle is not too complicated and the classics hidden objects, a good game of evasion without too many thoughts.

I love the Matchmaker series
Just like I like them, HO w/puzzles interspersed. My fave. For those who just want to be entertained without too much hype.

Good Fun Factor and Under-rated
This game seems to be under-rated. No it's not for everyone as it isn't as sophisticated as the current new generation of the games being released that are so popular.
High percentage of HOGs and I thought the puzzles were different from the usual run of the mill. Seemed to have alot of imagination and creativity put into it. It's a calm, relaxing & entertaining game. I almost didn't download/purchase it because of the low rating but I'm glad I did!
